Raise Your Calves.

Whether to raise the calf or buy the
COW is subject upon which there is
difference of opinion. We have had
men sit down by our side and figure
out to their own satisfaction that
dairyman could not afford to raise his
calves. But no one has ever figured it
out to our satisfaction. 1t always
seemed to us to be the blindest folly
for farmer and dairyman who has
calves from COWS that are possessed of
sufficient dairy merits to make them
profitable, to sell these calves which to
say the least, may be like their dams,
and then depend upon chance to pick
up his COWS from other peoples herds.
We believe and have always believed
that ordinarily it is great unwisdom to
sacrifice the heifer calves. 1t costs
something Of course, to raise calf, but
it must be remembered that consider.
able of the cost is of character K at is
not realized, fact which is true in re-
gard to the raising of all animals.
Good dairy stock ordinarily sells for
good price. The rule should be to
keep nothing but good cows and then
raise their heifer calves, five intend to
make the dairy a conspicuous brandh

Dishorning.

The custom of taking the horns off
of cattle is growing more and more in
favor among cattle raisers of the West,
A Kansas farmer named Fred Perkins
furnishes an enquiring correspondent
through the Country Gentleman the
following details on the proper manner
of taking the horns off.
The trouble with beginners is apt to
be failure to saw the horn close
enough to the head; they are afraid
of during the animal an injury. The
joining of the horn to the head varies
in different animals, but it should be
removed SO as to take one-half to one
inch of hair and hide with the horn, on
all large or mature animals. Dishorn-
ed at this point, the bleeding is less,
and it makes perfect muly, fully
healing and hairing over without any
stub horn.
After dishorning, it is we'll to watch
the cut to see that it does not form a
thick scab or crust, or heal over on
the outside too quickly, and prevent

Keeping the Flower Garden.

A small garden with few we'll chos-
en-, well-grown Towering plants, if
kept in scrupulous order and neatness
will be far more gratifying to its
owner, and to his friends, than a
large collection of plants without or.
der, arrangement or neatness. or
course there is choice in plants,
and a garden of the common flowers,
we'll kept, is far more creditable
than q jungle of expensive novelties,
left to care for themselves. "Good
keeping in the garden is equivalent
to ''good keeping" in the house.
Both depend upon hundreds of small
things, easily done if attended to at
the right time. In large garden
special tool.house will be found most
useful, out in a small one place tor
the tools must be found in some 9TH
er building. The wall of a woodsEed
or a barn, or suitable, large, cup
board like structure, built against a
board fence or building may be
made-indeed, any place that will
hold TOOLS 1t is far more important
that the tools are brought back to
their places after using, than that
their places should be snowy. In
every garden, even very small one,
there occur various materials, col
lectively known as "rubbish," which
must be disposed of. 1t is mistake
to have rubbish heap in some corn.
er, and throw all the refuse matter
from the garden upon it. There
should be at least three places Of
deposit for the different kinds of
rubbish, if the premises are large
enough otherwise it must be remov.

The Steamer AGikahala.

This latest addition TO the Inter-Island
fleet of steamers arrived in port early on
Wednesday morning last, IN command of
Can't Ben Hampstead, i'll 5 days and 70
hours from San Francisco. The Mikahala
is a vessel of about AS tons measurement,
and the following dimensions: length over
all, $50 feet; breadth of beam, - feet; depth
Of hold. Ii feet. The Mikahala has the
same engines which were in the wrecked
steamer Planter, and a new boiler. The III
ternal fittings of this steamer are some
what similar to those of the W. q. Hall.
Her saloon is on the main deck, and Is
reached by broad companion way from the
upper deck; on either side of the Saloon are
four double state rooms, elegantly fitted up
and we'll ventilated. The saloon itself is all
that could be desired by the most fastidious,
with pantry and storerool forward, and aft
is located the ladies' and gents Mushrooms,
and lockers for small stores, while the centre
of the saloon is occupied by the large dining
table with fixed seats,-the whole forming
one of the neatest cabins traveller could
desire. On the upper deck aft are eight
double state rooms, besides rooms for the
engineers, while forward, Is the pilot house,
with an elegant room for the Captain, and
on either side are the first and second Off
GERS quarters, and Just aft of these Is the
purSsrS quarters, with safe and ample room
fer valuable packageS-the whole covered III
from the pilot house 10 the stern with an
awning deck, which viii give ample protec-
tiOn TO the traveller from the suns rays or
rain. Capt. HsmStead reports the Mikahala
81 a fiRs sea boat, and capable of making
excellent time, judging from her days rams
on the passage from San Francisco 10 this
port. This steamer was built by the Hall
Brothers, at Port Ludlow, Washington Ter
rItory, and Is, like all their vessels, as strong
as wood and iron can make her. After re-
fitting and overhauling, the Mikahala will be
placed on the Kauai route, sailing next week
for Nawiliwili, Kalod and Waimea, in place
of the Iwalani, which steamer has been
doing duty on that route since the loss of
the Planter.

Suear In Brazil.

In regard to Sugar growing in Brazil, Brad
streets says; The position OF sugar growing
in Brazil is becoming critical. Within re-
cent years the Brazilian government mas
granted BY way of subsidy, interest guaran-
tees on central factories; this is to bring about
an increase of cane growing. Il was also in
tended to encourage the introduction of I'M
proved machinery, that better grade OF
sugar might be produced. The new policy
was entered upon Just when sugar produc-
ton throughout the world had begun to out
strip consumrtion. With a great depression
i'm prices in prospect the government was
Offering n stimulus TO au Improbable indus
try. Again the chief strength of the Bra
ALLAN sugar trade has been the exporting OF
raw sugars TO the United States. The new
laws encouraged the production of refined
sucars in the favored factories, which IN turn
checked the raw sugar industry IN the old
plantation mills. In consequence serious
loss has been inflicted on Brazilian sugar
growers. The suspension OF the export
duties has been asked for. This has Teen
refused on the ground that the governments
cannot afford to lose the revenue. lt Is ap-
parent that the export tax on sugar must be
suspended if the sugar industry IS not To De
DESTROYED. The facts at once illustrates the
closer relationships of the industrial world
and the increasing danger of government
action save on full knowledge.
